​Barbara Kramer

Hi, I am Barbara, originally from Austria and moved to New Zealand in August 1999.​​Before then I was working as a Sports Coordinator for Club Med around the world but needed a change from work and lifestyle.

My first triathlon was in 2001, I was hooked from the start. Since then I have completed many short and long distance Triathlons, Marathons and Half Marathons.

From 2000 – 2004, I managed a Health and Fitness Club. My passion got the better of me; I then decided to create my own Coaching business.

Since October 2004, I have been operating Tri 2 Win Coaching successfully and over this time helped many Athletes and Personal Training Clients achieve their goals.

I’m married to Greg Pye, a local Kiwi lad, who is also a keen triathlete and a certified Massage Therapist.​In 2007, I was selected to be the Team Manager for New Zealand’s Age Group World Champs in Hamburg. And in 2013, I made the Top five for “Triathlon Coach of the Year”. ​

THE TRI 2 WIN COACHING PHILOSOPHY

Coaching is all about helping athletes improve their ability to achieve their goals and ambitions. It should be done positively, smartly and with passion.

In a coach/athlete relationship, communication is a vital aspect. It is very important to talk to the athlete individually to determine what their individual values and beliefs are, along with their goals and motivation.

As a coach, we are a powerful role model and can have a tremendous influence on an athlete as long as we are on the same page.

​A key ingredient in coaching is to take the time and get to know the athlete to understand their individual skills and abilities along with their strengths and weaknesses. Building a strong bond between a coach and athlete leads to higher levels of commitment and athletic performance. ​At Tri 2 Win, it is foremost to provide the highest level of guidance, knowledge and support to the athlete in every training program designed to ensure the best results and achievement of the athlete’s goals.
